pit ct, wode:naterallytherefore be among the to les to which the Noble Lord would propose to di rect the attention'id the House. But- it would ap pear from the wording of the Noble Earl that. it was not the campaign` in Portugal, that it was trot the Cintra Convention, that it was not the condud afthe war.in Spain, .that the NOble Lord was 1111X1- DOS to investigate an inquiry into ; but -the state of the Nation at large, Could any thing be more vague and indefinite, than the object of such,an inquiry? If the Noble Earl meant an. inquiry into the state of the Nation, as'atreiited ti y,the•Convention enneluded iti Poringal, or by Ile!: plan and conduCt.4;the Vvfrar,: in Spain, .1t might perhaps be possible.sv to shape. the Noble Eirt'S motiOn, as to,rentove the ob.: , jettions which ht now entertained; to it : but then, ;19 a previota step, the Neble Earl should move, for iniOrmation upon each of these points. He and the 'louse ShOuld first be in pos i ession of the real facts, . before they proceeded to .pronouhet a judgment on. Matters which hereafter might prove ,to be %%11014 uttfomided. Every informatitin which might be safely laid befote the PUblic, his'Majesty's Ministers were ready VO produce. They were equally ready and prepared to meet any , inveStigation of their con, dna which it might he thought proper to institute; bot to agree 10 tt , motion for a Cinnmittee to inquire generally into the titate of the Nation, would be only asienting to t' , at which must breed much confusion, create Many ineonveoienees, and end be pry ductive of,no advantage whatever. As to what had been said respecting the liberty of the press, his de cided opinion was, that; the existing laws, if duly enforced, were fully sufficient to represS oustiess ,into which it might degenerate; Ott tlpt subject, therefore, the Noble Earl might feel no alarm; • It waS it) vain to say, as had been said at the ppening of the Session, that the misconduct of Mi niaters was obvious; it was so obvious, where was the necessity of any inquiry to sheW it ? Bt4 he d e .. Med that any tniscondutt was imputable to his Ma jesty's Givernment. It should at least hhve;been steted-in what perticular points that misconduct was to'b'e foonderL Information should he called for, slid facts ascertained which would prove in what the misconduct consiste I. To proceed to an investiga tion of - the meilearee ot Gbvereinent. without any !acts or information:to guide the Judgment of the House, would Only,be running into a blind inquiry, which could 'never leek!

He didnor tLitik the motion of his Noble Friend should Abe narrowed to the Cintra Conventietvor the cone duct of the war-in Spain. The conduct of Minister's. towards S vvetien, • for example„' should alio be taken into coniiderntio'n ; and whatever else might cularly require a rigid- exeminalion. • So fir . he imae. glued the scope of hes Noble,Yriend's Motion might: be limited; but mm farther;; nod, whenever an itfr qoiry was feirly iteititoted• into• thefke Matters, be 311,3131,1 be ready to prove that- the conduct ot his Ma jesty's Ministers in most of these .respects awns el) ! ireiusly 'to be blamed, Lor.l Gaosy ENoit, in explanation, said, that he should have uo übj;;ilion to shape his motion in any manner that Might meet The wi-dies of the House, so however its not to hazard the attainment of the obj,' , ?:t which he'lut in view in subioAting to their Louiship's attention. The Earl of LIViIItPOOL contended, thatmotions so, vagoEy framed had long laden' censi:lcred as irre gn!ali and unpariiamentary ;' and he. was Rereowliat serptized :to heer teem •so mech, insisted upon by' the Noble Baron • (Gienville)-oeposite bin). For the hist twenty years,' mrtiiioly a: paid& the moil eventful in one. history; 1110110ns, detibr, of a: si miler moire, had ftepently been brought furWatd in both lions...s of Parliament. where were 'certainly events , within that tqmorable which were attended . withconsequences of , the most serioue au tilre, consequences tulle as serious aA any a more recent date ; he might instance,lwo, the loss of /1(4.A, and the .retreat from 'Dunkirk ; yet when motions.were made Similar to the present,. in enuse que,Dee. of these everts,' they were übje&ed to- by the i'4oble Baron,: who was a conspicuous Member of the Adnunistration of• that day, and in Ihe °pi,' pion of the,Noble Baron ,he had the honour 'trot:M: 7 cur.

Iteieed such motives were rather calcolated.to confeutel and confuse , t he ob pas investigaticrn, tl ) itn to lead to and' certain re stilt. He should therefore for these reasons oppose the motion of the Nyble Earl, not becauso.he'was fearful to meet 4,quity, which, on the contrary, he , courted, but betenise the House would be , (elle groping in the dark, oelesi they had before them real 410etnoeitts, and an 4icenra!-2 statement of. li.)/itre by w alone the eondu& of his Majesty's !bey propriety of the.measures,titey lasi l=ts~ wet cl, c. 111,1 be fairly 301)0:Tinted.

Spain implores our aid—we make every proinise to afford it to the ut most; yet, for font - months afterwards, when we; had colleclM an army to assist them, what did Ministers do ? They sent the army to Portugal where it could be of no'service to Spain for, if Spain was gone, how vain, would it be to attempt defending ; nal:claming Portugal? After driving the enemy from Portugal, the British troops that were in Portugal are sent to Spain, ani,l to where they bad only difli cul{ies :.and dangers : to ptigounter," without the least prospe& of doing honour tp,themselyes, or affording assistance' to ;heir Allies. Another army is sent out under Sir 1). Baird, taland at immense distance .from that of Sir .1. Moore, with whom it was in tended to co-o; terate: It was sent out without any plan of operation, or any arringement for its mains. tenuous, and that toe, to a part 'of Spain the. least able to atibrd any subsistence,- ; the .most igborapt, jealous, and higotted of any part of ,that country, and therefore the most uplikely. to second m any, reseed the wishes and he . viewis of a British army. Thus did Mini4ers render useless the valoUr and discipline of British soldiers. . Thus did they ex pose them to unavailing sufferings, to unprofitable fatigues. Their conduet, in these respeAs, is ob viously and glaringly reprehensible. Thesesenti s metals he did not exptessi from any party. prejudice. He was no party-man ; he belonged .ta no party. lie highly esteemed many individuals of his Ma jesty's Gov,..trnment ; hut the aggregate of the too mares of Ministers he could not but condemn. It most bring down ruin ,on the country. It was the . country he looked to; it is for her interests and ho eour he felt anxious;. •and he must adiure their Lordships, to stop Ministers in their wild career, .which.perhaps could not , be better done than by ac ceding to the- motion of .his 'Noble Friend, for an Inquiry into the State of the nati on. Lord 1 - haltowtaY could not .wcp coticciv how the speech ot.shaNeble , Boron who:spoke last; . could be brought to bear on the' twestion before the Hoese. When he heard the Noble .

Then, indeed, some Noblelsorris might be justified • its describing us as a sipkiog 'nation ; .

On the contrary; he had . ever held out, that if our 10401treeS" were well ma.' tirh , ,ed arid applied, it our national energies were wisely iiireeted, we might ,riet defiance tc the rest of the world. We Were proud in the•enconquerable valoet of. our Navy proud in the bravery and ipirit of our ArrOy; and proild in the extent and variety otour resources. But all •these sources of strength arid independence must tail, if wisdom be.wanting in our councils. It was in the intemperance: of his M:ijesty's present Ministers we had ' , every thing to fear.
